Jennifer Lopez's 13-Year-Old Daughter Looks Just Like Her

Where you as blown away by JLo's halftime show as I was? Everyone loves Jennifer Lopez; she stole the nation's hearts with her singing in the 1997 hit Selena and hasn't stopped since.

She's also a mom

She has incredible skills: singing, dancing, acting, and producing. What you may not know is that she has eleven-year-old twins. She married Marc Anthony in 2004 and had a set of fraternal twins, Emme and Maximilian.

Unfortunately, the couple split up in 2011. The divorce was finalized in 2014, and JLo got primary custody of the twins.

As the twins have matured, it is uncanny how much Emme looks like her mother. Max looks a bit more like a merging of his two parents.

Emme is also displaying her mother's talents. Her proud mom has released a video of the girl happily singing in a Christmas pageant. In addition, the child has written a book called Lord Help Me that will be published soon. Quite an achievement for an 11-year-old. Most of us had barely moved beyond our paste-eating stage at that age.

Lopez says she loves her twins and how they help balance out her life. She also really likes how deeply bonded the two children are. Her busy schedule means her family acts as the primary care-givers for her kids; she refuses to hire a nanny. The children are allowed to "schedule" quality time with their mother, and as they have matured, they are allowed to pick what activity they want to do with Lopez. For example, Max recently scheduled a picnic with JLo.

Mom, performer, business owner, and helps out sick kids

Lopez is currently 50 and is thought to be the most influential Latin performer in the world. Her movies have grossed over $3 billion, and she has sold around 80 million copies of her musical recordings worldwide.

In addition to performing, she has clothing lines, perfumes, and a charity that provides medical care to disadvantaged children. Lopez founded the charity after her daughter Emme developed a peculiar bump on her head. Although the condition was easily treated, it occurred to her that many children have no access to health care, and the Lopez Family Foundation was established shortly after that. It promotes the use of telemedicine to allow sick children to be treated by experts no matter where the child and expert happen to be physically located.

If you think Emme could be JLo's mini-me, why not discuss this topic with all of your friends?
